    Its stupid, but not quite as stupid as saying because you drove by one restaurant that was full at one time that is proof people are visiting them.

    I wouldn't be so quick to throw out the stupid card if that's your level of proof.

    My comment was in direct response to what that idiot AOC said which, to remind you:

    "People are literally not patroning Chinese restaurants."

    Well, yeah, they "literally" are...

    At least she acknowledges that it is "almost" silly to say. Although she should really acknowledge that it is ABSOLUTELY silly. This silly little girl fails to realise that many NON-Chinese restaurants are also doing less business.

    Well "baux of the fifth column" is an admitted "anarchist" that's as extreme as it gets. That's like getting information on racism from a klansman.

    No he's a self proclaimed anarchist. He's said that himself.

    I don't think she said all people aren't. I really don't get the obsession with every little thing AOC says. She's not the future of the Democratic party. Outside of a tiny minority of people in her own district she's very unpopular, even amongst democrats.

    I can only judge her comments by the words she chooses: "People are literally not going to Chinese restaurants."

    That's false by any measure...

    My one and only attempt at thread creation was deleted and I read the guidelines. Someone reported it so I will stick to comments in future LOL

    Re AOC I just love the way the illiterate numpty used the word "patroning" not once but twice!

    Reading them and following them are two very different things.

    After reading them I was of the belief that I followed said guidelines.
